Title
Loyola News: Message of President (Rev. Samuel K. Wilson, S.J. on Pearl Harbor)
Description
An article titled "Message of President" appears on the first page of the Loyola News on Dec. 15, 1941. Includes a photo of Rev. Samuel K. Wilson, S.J. President of Loyola University, and is signed by him as well.
In this piece, Rev. Wilson emphasizes loyalty when under attack, remaining calm, refusing "to be pushed by any rumor into a state of nerves," and that the American citizen had been called upon.
He also emphasizes smartness, and that "it is the smart thing for students to prepare themselves in every way possible for a future part in the encounter." School could prepare them with technical knowledge for defense and offense, "powers of leadership," and "to learn to think, correctly and to think rapidly."
